Certain statements in the Website and the Content may constitute “forward-looking” statements that involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual returns of funds, investments, securities or loans to be materially different from any future returns or values expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

You and we each waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such litigation in the New York Courts and agree not to plead or claim in any New York Court that such litigation brought therein has been brought in an inconvenient forum or that there are indispensable parties to such litigation that are not subject to the jurisdiction of the New York Courts. You and we each hereby irrevocably waive any and all rights which you or we, respectively, may have, or may have had, to bring such litigation in or before any other court or tribunal (whether domestic or foreign), or before any similar domestic or foreign authority or body, and agree not to claim or plead any such rights.

23. General

You acknowledge and agree that all rights not otherwise expressly granted to you by the ToS are reserved to TCJ. The ToS, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and us with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other prior or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions, agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, between you and us with respect to such subject matter. You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and TCJ as a result of the ToS or any use of the Website. The failure of TCJ to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the ToS shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the ToS is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void, unlawful or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court should give effect to the Parties' intentions as reflected in such provision, and the other provisions of the ToS shall remain in full force and effect. The section titles in the ToS are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.

Neither the course of conduct between you and TCJ, nor trade practice, shall serve to modify any provision of the ToS. For purposes of the ToS, the terms “include,” “includes,” “including,” “such as” and “for example,” shall be construed as if each term were followed by the words, “without limitation.” Except where context requires otherwise, use of the singular form of any noun includes the plural, and use of the plural includes the singular.
